I think it best for a neutral player to give the main summary of the kami and karavan. And good job on the summaries. As a side note, the kami lean more towards nature and try to protect that, while the karavan are more into technology. The kami follow the god, Ma-Duk and the karavan follow the goddess, Jena. ~I like to pretend Ma-Duk looks like Orlando Bloom, since Keiko worships him ;) ~

The Kamis are the living incarnation of Ma-Duk, the Great Creator of Atys. Ma-Duk is not represented in the form of a superior hominoid. It is instead a bodiless entity of pure energy that presides over a kind of nirvana. The Kamis have been placed on Atys to watch over the planet and defend it against anyone who might threaten to break its natural balance.
Since when is Ma-Duk a male god? :confused: This concept that a bodiless entity of life energy is a being likenable to Jena (except idealogy and gender) cropped up somewhere along the way, and I'm not sure when, why, or how...

Maybe because Homins hold a secret hope that Jena and Ma-Duk are lovers and will one day "kiss and make-up"! :D

Actually, isn't Elias Tryton Jena's estranged husband? I can't remember where I heard that...

"what is yoru name?"
"what is your quest?"
"what is the average air velocity of an unlaiden swallow"

i think it is 3 qn's that you have to answer and the information is all on the temple inscriptions.

to get natae tp you need to become a follower of the karavan which requires 30 fame. it isn't just sufficiant to have 30 fame. a neutral with 50 karavan fame still would not be able to get natae or any 250 area tp's
